Treatment for laryngospasm or laryngeal spasm comprises of treating the underlying condition which is causing it. If the cause of the laryngospasm is GERD, then treatment for this condition helps in managing laryngospasm. Proton pump inhibitors such as esomeprazole, dexlansoprazole and lansoprazole are prescribed.
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (abbreviated PCV13) is a shot for infants and toddlers. It helps prevent pneumococcal disease, and it also helps stop the disease from spreading from person to person. It is now also being given to older adults. The vaccine's protection lasts at least 3 years.
When you see your GP for a flu jab, ask whether you also need the pneumococcal vaccine, which protects you against some forms of pneumococcal infection including pneumonia. Like the flu jab, the pneumococcal vaccine (also known as the pneumonia vaccine or pneumo jab) is available free on the NHS to everyone aged 65 or over, and for younger people with some serious medical conditions. But it's a one-off jab rather than an annual one.
